Author(s): Khurshid Ahmad Hurrah and Mudeser Muzafer
Abstract:
For every person to some extent, physical fitness now a day has become an essential requirement to stay fit, so that in the future they can’t face a miserable life with lots of health issues. Muscular endurance is one of the components of physical fitness needed for an athlete performance especially in endurance based sports. It helps to enhance the cardiovascular fitness of muscles. Muscular endurance helps in maintaining the stability of a good posture. The aim of this study was to examine the muscular endurance, among high aerobic capacity and low aerobic capacity sportspersons which were selected from Government Degree Colleges of Kashmir division. For the present study, test used to measure the muscular endurance of the sportspersons of both groups was Sit-Ups. For the present study, 200 sportspersons (100 from high aerobic capacity and 100 from low aerobic capacity sportspersons’ group) were selected, from Government Degree Colleges of Kashmir division, through purposive sampling. Age of the sportspersons of both the groups was selected between 18 to 25 years. To discover the level of muscular endurance between high aerobic capacity sportspersons and low aerobic capacity sportspersons, ‘t’ test was applied, at 0.05 level of Significance. The mean value of high aerobic capacity sportspersons group and low aerobic capacity sportspersons group in relation to Muscular endurance was (41.97#34.92), while as the standard deviation of high aerobic capacity group and low aerobic capacity group in relation to Muscular endurance was (6.521#7.008), respectively. Calculated t–ratio was found 7.36, which was greater than the tabulated t (1.972). The result showed that there was a significant difference, in muscular endurance level between high aerobic capacity and low aerobic capacity sportspersons. Therefore, the hypothesis given earlier was accepted.
